Unsurprisingly, HackYourConsole is now out of service. All pre-orders have been cancelled, and the site is no longer accepting new orders.

HackYourConsole has shut down following Nintendo’s lawsuit. It’s the company’s latest attempt to crack down on piracy.

In an announcement made earlier this month, Nintendo said HackYourConsole “blatantly promotes and sells unauthorized Nintendo games along with devices and services that circumvent the security in the Nintendo DS system and the Wii console.” The site offered unauthorized copies of Nintendo titles as well as game-copying devices including the R4 tool “used to circumvent the technological protection measures contained in the Nintendo DS family of hand-held systems.” HackYourConsole additionally intended to distribute the 3DS Gateway cards, which operate in a similar fashion to the R4 device.

Nintendo is looking to sell more than five million 3DS units in Japan this year, Satoru Iwata said during a Monster Hunter 4 event held earlier today.

Iwata stated:

“There are more and more media reports suggesting that things aren’t going very well for the dedicated gaming hardware business. But that’s not true, at least for the 3DS in Japan.”

Iwata mentioned that more than 5.5 million 3DS units were sold last year. With Monster Hunter 4 due out next month, Nintendo’s goal should be attainable.
